This is my go to spot for Syrian food in the area. The food is amazing, service is great. The owners you can tell go above and beyond and are very nice. The vibes in the restaurant are amazing, very clean calm atmosphere. Support local restaurants this place deserves your time!

Ali Baba Restaurant is a true gem in North O, offering authentic Mediterranean/Middle Eastern cuisine. The family-owned restaurant has been serving delicious food since 1972, with a consistent and tasty menu that caters to various tastes. The super cute interior has a calming and warm ambiance. The food is amazing and flavorful with generous portions for more than reasonable prices. This is the best Lebanese food you can find, made with fresh ingredients. Guests always get the Elysian Lamb with rice, and the hummus and falafels are the best. The service is great and awesome. The restaurant offers a selection of draft and bottle beers, but no other alcohol. With its exceptional flavors, Ali Baba Restaurant is a must-visit for food enthusiasts. Located conveniently near major universities, it provides a cozy atmosphere perfect for gatherings. Takeout and delivery options are available, making it a top choice for anyone craving high-quality Middle Eastern food.
